I don't think Leduc or Sisler are racing. These are pre registered racers. We will have to see in Friday for practice who else shows up. Hopefully they do race to add to the deep talent in this class.
We started the 2011 season off with 16 ProLites and might have aprox 26-28 in 2012.

Team Competitive Metals Launches New Off Road
Joint-Venture for 2012 Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series
El Cajon, CA -- Team Competitive Metals (TCM) announced today the formation of a joint-
Geoffrey Cooley; Justin "Bean" Smith;
Dave Mason Jr.
venture between Justin "Bean" Smith, Alumi Craft, Mason Off Road and Competitive Metals that will field a three car team in the Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series for 2012. Piloting the Competitive Metals / Metal Mulisha Pro-Lite will be Justin "Bean" Smith. Geoffrey Cooley will pilot the #22 Alumi Craft / Competitive Metals Pro-Buggy along with teammate Dave Mason Jr., who will pilot the #65 Rigid Industries / Competitive Metals Pro-Buggy. The team was initiated by Greg Parker, owner of Competitive Metals, a leading supplier of metal products in Southern California, Nevada and Arizona. All three drivers will pilot brand new race cars built by Alumi Craft.
"We've had a long standing relationship with the off-road industry and these drivers and teams. They are a very talented group of people that will give us a strong platform to build our team, while at the same time contribute to the future of the sports up-and-coming stars," said Parker, who's been a long time supporter and competitor of off road racing. "This year will be a learning curve for all of us as we build this joint-venture. But we are excited about what we can accomplish both on and off the track this year."
2010 Limited Buggy Champion Justin "Bean" Smith ended his 2011 Pro-Buggy debut 2nd in the point's championship and also won the coveted Challenge Cup. "Bean" is recognized as one of the top threats as he heads into his first-ever full season in the Pro-Lite Class. "I couldn't be happier about moving up to the Pro-Lite class this year. We have an awesome truck being built and lots of work ahead, but it's going to be a great year," said Smith.
Geoffrey Cooley finished off last season by winning the Limited-Buggy Challenge Cup race, something he wanted to accomplish before moving up in class. "Getting a win in Limited Buggy gave me a big boost of confidence going into this year," said Cooley. "It gives us a lot of momentum and excitement about what we can do this year in Pro-Buggy. We have designed and built a new Alumi Craft car that will be good. I know we have a learning curve and the competition will be tough. Our goal will be to stay out of trouble and have clean races and solid finishes."
Dave Mason Jr. was one of the most consistent drivers in all of short course racing last year finishing second in the Limited-Buggy point's championship. He will look for the same consistency as he moves up to the Pro-Buggy class. "It's exciting to be moving up in class and to be partnering with Competitive Metals. Their support and belief in me has been amazing so far and I'm very grateful to have this opportunity," expressed Mason Jr. "We have a lot of momentum coming off a successful year. We have the best brand of car out there with Alumi Craft and we have a great crew. Now I just need to get a lot of practice to learn the car and the best setups. We want to be ready to be a top contender come race day."
The team is in the process of finishing the new Alumi Craft cars and plans to have all drivers on track for a test session at Glen Helen this month. The first two rounds of the 2012 season will be held at Firebird International Raceway on Saturday March 31st (round-1) and Sunday April 1st (round-2).
